We report the first case of catheter-related bacteremia caused by Kocuria salsicia in a patient with short bowel syndrome. The pathogen was initially identified as Kocuria varians by a Vitek 2-based assessment, but its 16S rRNA gene sequence showed 100% similarity to K. salsicia. The patient was successfully treated with vancomycin and removal of the catheter.
